NO, Stark makes them, Fury does however buy them in bulk.

Doom probably stole the Starktech LMD designs to improve his Doombots.

He eats his steak well-done because fully cooking it like that breaks down the proteins, requiring fewer calories to digest JUST IN CASE it is his last meal for awhile. Batman: ALWAYS PREPARED.

Did you ever read Brian Azzarello's Batman arc where there's this long scene dedicated to properly cooking a steak? Batman just has a thing about his beef.

That's actually a reference to the live action J'onn from the pilot to the aborted Justice League series.

I hadn't either to be fair, so I just did a bit of googling.

We may never have heard of it before because the Justice League TV series pilot was made and broadcast in 1997 while Kingdom Come was released in '96.

I suspect, therefore, that the fat, balding Jon J'onzz in Kingdom Come is a reference to a fat blading man dressing up as Martian Manhunter for a super-hero themed costume restaurant. Sorry, Random Stranger.

I knew the release dates so I kind of thought maybe it wasn't a thing but who knows, Alex Ross might have been invited to the set one day.

Most of the Sonic comics are actually really terrible. The last couple of years it's been trying to tap into the wellspring of awesome that Mega Man has and it's failing miserably.

Okay...

Ray Palmer had been going crazy under a domed city for a year, hearing voices with his only remaining power being to enlarge his hand.
Turns out Ryan was trapped in something like what shrinking guys have instead of the speed force. I think he called it the "mass dimension" (no idea if that was made up for this comic) and Ray's schizophrenia was Ryan's voice and his inflat-o hand was Ryan lending him his mass.
That page is how Ray let Ryan get out, and later Ryan grows Ray's hand back by stealing the mass from Deathstroke's, making them all tiny.



Yup.

I really hope Tiny-Hands Deathstroke makes it into the new Post 52 Universe.

I love that at some point a desperate writer tried to handwave Magneto's mind-control powers by him controlling the iron in blood.



In X-Force #25 Magneto reveals that he can undo the mental conditioning Rusty and Skids underwent by destroying the parts of their brains that were effected because you know, iron in blood.

Then shenanigans happened in the 90's, and a teenage Valeria came from an alternate future where she'd been raised by Sue and Dr. Doom. It turned out Franklin had unconsciously sent her to that alternate universe when she "died." Then he and Val combined their powers to resurrect Galactus so he could get the Ultimate Nullifier from Abraxas, and when it was used, Val reverted back to Sue's womb, the pregnancy started over again, and this time with Doom's help, she was delivered successfully.
